Tony Snow vs. the English language |
"Why doesn't Senator Kerry, rather than saying, I meant to put in the
word, 'us' -- and you try to put in 'us' here, left out the word 'us' --
and if you don't -- if you don't, you get stuck in Iraq. Where does 'us'
fit in? You don't 'us' get stuck? I don't understand. It just -- it
doesn't scan here."

He doesn't know where the word might fit in? It "doesn't scan here"?
Makes you wonder what "plenty smart" means to Bush, that he has such an
illiterate guy doing his press briefings for him.

"Heed the message served with every Republican banquet speech -- that the
private interest precedes the public interest, that money is good for rich
people, bad for poor people -- and who can say that the war in Iraq has proven
to be anything other than the transformation of a godforsaken desert into a
defense contractor's Garden of Eden?" -- Lewis Lapham

Illiterate? The poor slob can't even talk without a TelePrompTer.
Comes from not knowing what you're talking about and not believing
what you have to say. It's why liars stumble over their words.
(Should that have been "other liars"?)
